Hillary Clinton Welcomes Banned Islamic Radicals

In an effort to pursue a better relationship with Muslim
communities, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has signed special
orders to allow the reentry of two radical Islamic academics whose
terrorist ties have for years banned them from the United States.
Clinton chose to exercise her exemption authority
as the nation’s chief foreign affairs adviser in a quest to fulfill
President Obama’s mission of creating a new and improved
relationship—based on mutual interest and mutual respect—with Muslims
around the world. At least that’s the official word from the State
Department.
The special order, signed by Clinton this week, assures the two
extremist Muslim scholars (Tariq Ramadan and Adam Habib), known to
support and endorse Islamic terrorism, entry into the U.S. for the first
time in years. The State Department has repeatedly denied their visa
claiming they present a national security threat.
Ramadan, one of the European Muslim world’s most prominent scholars,
is the better known of the two. He openly supports the Palestinian
terrorist group Hamas, has worked for Iran and donates money to
terrorist causes. His grandfather founded the Muslim Brotherhood, an influential Islamist group that advocates terrorism against Israel and the west and is known as the parent organization of Hamas and Al Qaeda.
A few months ago a Dutch university fired Ramadan
over his extremism and his work for the Islamic Republic of Iran. The
move capped the beloved Muslim professor’s assessment that London subway
bombers were justified in acting out against their oppressors because
the “British government is helping Iraqi people to be killed.” A
well-known French author who has studied Ramadan extensively says the
scholar is undoubtedly an agent of radicalization.
Habib, a South African sociologist who attended college in New York,
is not as high profile but never the less has spoken out against U.S.
foreign policy in the Middle East and the nation’s war on terrorism. In
banning his entry, the State Department has claimed he “engaged in a
terrorist activity.”
Now, with the stroke of Madam Secretary’s pen, both men are free to
spread their radical agendas on American soil. Clinton’s decision brings
to an end a dark period
in American politics, according to Ramadan, who praised the Obama
Administration for its willingness to reopen the United States to the
rest of the world and to permit critical debate.
